About this title

Synopsis

Emergency Medical Responder Essentials, 3rd Edition, presents learners with unique and vital information in a concise, easily comprehensible, and well-organized book that truly meets the needs of today’s Emergency Medical Responder (EMR). Stressing the “essentials” enables this to be a multiuse book. It functions as an EMR textbook, resource, and study manual. Students are introduced to necessary cognitive, psychomotor, and affective domains throughout the chapters. This book includes additional information that learners will need for assessment, interventions, and critical thinking in the field. Unique to this book is the concise presentation of anatomy, physiology, and pathophysiology to facilitate learning and a clear systematic approach to patient assessment and management.

About the Author

Joseph Allen Grafft, MS, NREMT Joe Grafft’s interest and eventual career as an EMS provider and educator began with his father Charlie Grafft, a police chief and later county sheriff. Despite having little and living in a boxcar without running water the first 12 years of Joe’s life, his father modeled volunteerism. In 1959, at the age of 12, Joe began taking first aid and rescue classes from his father and became part of a junior rescue squad. Instilled in him was the importance of care and concern for the patient. His father’s words of wisdom still resound after all these years, “Have a reason for what you do and treat everyone with respect and dignity!” How true these words are today!
